I mean, it IS basically a self-insert masturbatory ‘little guy is super badass’ anime… but it is a FUN and visually neat one at the same time. I would tell people to watch it if they like the premise. Just don’t read the book. It somehow was more mary sue-ish.
How’d SAO make that list?
I liked it. The novel was a little better maybe.
I would argue that there is a reason it has become such a huge success. It’s the vanilla flavor of isekai anime.
That’s why I recommended it. It’s baby’s first isekaia, basically.
